a giver looks for opportunity - to give - to bless - to be used by God - look for yours today
someone will probably interrupt you to ask an off-the-wall question today - resist the temptation to just get them out of your way - take a moment - consider why they did it - maybe they need more than just a quick answer - give them a little of your time - 5 minutes of "you" will be huge to someone who is hurting - or needs a friend - or is just a little lost on what to do with whatever situation they have in their life today
stop to think next time you buy a bottled water - or stand at a drink machine trying to decide - think about who you'll see in the next few minutes - take them one too
some time soon you'll find yourself following behind someone making a mess - literally or figuratively - help them clean it up - then give them an extra gift - don't lecture them about it - or helping them clean up isn't much of a gift
today I pray:

"you will be made rich in every way so that you can be generous on every occasion, and through us your generosity will result in thanksgiving to God." (2 Cor 9:11)
